Upper lip swelled a little bit after creatine. PLz help

[gags986]

Hi,

I regularly go to gym and looking for some weight gain. I just took creatine with glucose in water for 2 days and my upper lip is little swollen, I have not taken it since then its been 2 days and the swelling comes and goes.

Please let me know is this gonna impact too much on my health (taking just 5 grams of creating for 2 days.)? I am not gonna tke it from now anyhow but i believe the swelling will go away in few days coz the intake was minimal. please let me know your thoughts.

thanks.

I wanted to check in on you to see how everything was going are you still getting reactions when you have creatine?  Did you find an alternative?

Wanted to add a MedHelp link, too, but this one doesn't specifically mention "upper lip" . .it states "face....", but may be helpful for you too ...

Drugs.com states, cases of anaphylaxis have been reported while using creatine. During anaphylaxis your face, lips, mouth and tongue may swell within seconds or a few minutes of using the supplement.  You may want to steer clear from this if you are noticing this symptom.  Keep us posted.
